The green-eyed monster

G. Berners

James gave Elizabeth a Dodo,

He only

offered

one to me -

A lovely lemon-coloured Dodo,

With the greenest eyes that you could wish to see.

Now it isn't that I'm doubting if James loves me,

I know that he would ask me out to tea,

But he

did

give Elizabeth a Dodo

While he only

offered

one to me.
